How do you respond to people that say it was a sell-out and we should have kept marching?
Depends upon what your objective is. Your, if your objective is civil disorder, ah, I think that was a worthy objective. If your objective is to find solutions to tortuous human problems like racial discrimination and segregation, ah, I think that, that attitude is, ah, ah, hazardous, disastrous.
I just need to ask you again to talk, to continue, marching? What would they have gotten by continuing marching?
The, if the marchers had continued they would not have gotten the kind of summit conference which resulted in, in a victory for Martin Luther King and for the mayor. What they would ultimately have gotten was a major civil disorder in this city. Or if not, a major political disruption or, or who knows? We could have had riots.
